Introduction Fetal malpresentation is a complication of pregnancy in which the fetus does not present cephalically as required for vaginal birth. After a diagnosis is made, management options include cesarean section (CS) or external cephalic version (ECV). ECV is a procedure in which providers attempt to manually maneuver the fetus to cephalic position, allowing patients to attempt vaginal birth. Selecting between CS or ECV can be a complex and stressful decision, yet literature exploring patient perspectives on counseling of these options is limited...

Glycine encephalopathy with normal serum glycine (MIM #617301), also known as GLYT1 encephalopathy, is an extremely rare disorder caused by biallelic variants in SLC6A9 and characterised by facial dysmorphic features, skeletal findings including contractures, knee hyperextension, and joint dislocations and seizures. To date, only ten patients from five families have been reported and only two of them could survive until childhood. In this study, we report on a consanguineous Turkish couple with a history of six pregnancies with three habitual abortions and three postpartum exitus...

INTRODUCTION: The age at which women give birth is rising steadily in the western world. Advanced maternal age has been associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes. We assessed the association between advanced maternal age and the risk of adverse maternal and perinatal outcome in primigravid and multigravid women. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study was a population-based cohort study and included women giving birth between January 2000 and December 2018 using data from the Dutch perinatal registration of Perined...

OBJECTIVE: To assess whether the abdominal scar characteristics and closure of the peritoneum were associated with pelvic adhesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients who had undergone cesarean section between December 2015 and February 2016 were assessed prospectively in terms of age, gravida, body mass index, number of living children, number of cesarean sections, time passed since the last cesarean section, closure status of the peritoneum in the last cesarean section, presence of other diseases, smoking status, location of incision in the abdomen (medial, pfannenstiel) scar dimensions (length, width), scar status with respect to skin (hypertrophic, flat, depressive), scar color [color change/no color change (hyperpigmented/hypopigmented)], adhesion of bowel-omentum-uterus, omentum-anterior abdominal wall, uterus-anterior abdominal wall, uterus-bladder, bladder-anterior abdominal wall, fixed uterus, and uterus-omentum-anterior abdominal wall in abdominal exploration...

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of peritonization at cesarean section on postoperative vital signs which was thought to be an indirect finding secondary to increased sympathetic activity originated from pain caused by stretched peritoneum. METHODS: One hundred and thirty-three pregnant women were randomized to four groups; Closure of parietal peritoneum only (group 1; n = 32), closure of visceral and parietal peritoneums (group 2; n = 32), no closure of peritoneums (group 3; n = 32) and closure of the visceral peritoneum only (group 4; n = 32)...

Ectopia cordis is a rare congenital defect in which the heart is partially or completely exposed on the surface of the thorax. It may occur as an isolated malformation or it may be associated with a larger category of ventral body wall defects that affect the thorax, abdomen or both. The defect is also often associated with intracardiac lesions. We report here a case of ectopia cordis who was born by ceserean section and died after an hour.

AIM: Pre-eclampsia (PE), eclampsia (E) and/or hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes and low platelets (HELLP) syndrome cause major perinatal and maternal morbidity, mortality and have extensive psychosocial impact. The aim of this study is to describe psychological consequences, interventions and outcomes in a population of women from a tertiary centre. METHODS: From February 2004 through April 2007, 25/141 (18%) women with a history of PE, E and/or HELLP syndrome were referred to the medical psychologist...

OBJECTIVE: To explore the efficacy and safety of continuously released prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) suppository-propess used for induction of term pregnancy. METHODS: A multicenter, prospective, case control clinical study was carried out, propess was used in 100 cases as study group, the suppository without PGE(2) was used in 49 cases as control group. The cervical maturity (by Bishop scoring), the time to labor starting, membrane rupture and delivery, the application of oxytocin, ceserean section rate, fetal and neonatal condition were compared between 2 groups after inserting of the suppository...

DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study using county malpractice defendant rate data from the Washington State Physicians Insurance and Exchange Association and prenatal care, delivery method, and self-reported obstetric suit experience data from the Content of Obstetrical Care Study database...

Delivery of nutrients to the fetus via the developing gastrointestinal tract has been advocated as a potential prenatal treatment for intrauterine growth retardation. Previous studies have demonstrated significant increases in fetal length and weight following continuous intraamniotic nutrient infusions in animals. The ideal composition of intraamniotic feedings has yet to be determined. Thirteen time-mated rabbit does underwent ceserean section between gestational days 27 and 33 to deliver 54 fetuses. The everted intestinal sleeve technique was used to measure radiolabeled carbohydrate and amino acid uptake rates from 1-cm segments of midjejunum...
